Parents, we greatly appreciate your assistance to help us maintain our dress code policy by following the criteria below

• No tights, jeggings, or leggings are to be worn to school as a standalone for clothing.
• No hats of any kind will be worn.
• No bandanas of any kind will be worn for any purpose (including for hair clips or bows).
• No head coverings may be worn. Exceptions will be made during the winter when students are outside-information will be provided.
• For student safety reasons as we have outside halls and staircases, all shoes shall always have a back and/or strap worn on the back of the foot. Shoes that are worn as “slides” (Crocs) may not be worn. Backs on shoes must always be worn in a stationary position to avoid tripping, falling, and slipping on sidewalks and stairs. Shoes with laces are preferred. 6th grade students will have a year- long Physical Education class (will not dress out) and must wear appropriate shoes in the gym and the field.

POLICY:5500.04:
The dress and grooming of District students shall be neat and clean, promoting a positive educational environment. Apparel that disrupts educational activities and processes of the school will result in the removal of the student from the regular school environment until acceptable apparel can be secured for the student. The administration will be the final judge about whether a student’s clothing is appropriate for school or whether it will create an environmental climate that is distracting to learning. Principals, faculty, and staff members will enforce the dress code. Failure to comply with the dress code will be handled similarly to other disciplinary infractions.

CONSEQUENCES:
1st & 2nd Offense: Warning, Change of Clothes, Parent contact.
3rd Offense: Change of Clothes, Parent contact, Administrative Detention
4th Offense: Change of Clothes, Parent Contact & In School Suspension.
